Archie retcons established character into transsexual

A decade since they introduced a male homosexual character named Kevin Keller, now Archie's continuing further down the drain to practically retconning an older creation into a transsexual, as reported by Warner Todd Huston. And the worst part is that a certain moonbat who'd gone into obscurity a few years ago is helming this monstrosity:
Continuing its walk down the ultra woke path, Archie Comics is now announcing the introduction of a new transgender character.

In an upcoming issue of its offshoot line, Archie Horror, the company is set to introduce a brand new “transgender woman” character named Danni Molloy, according to an exclusive sneak peek published by Gizmodo.

While the gender angle is new, the Molloy character itself is not exactly new. The character was first introduced in the 1980s and was portrayed as a sometimes girlfriend to Riverdale’s resident genius, Dilton Doiley. But now, for issue #1 of Archie Horror’s new comic, Chilling Adventures Presents: Strange Science, Malloy will be retconned as a “transgender woman.”

The entire purpose of this one-off comic book, which is set for release in August, is to erase Molloy as a woman and recreate the character as a man who now identifies as a female.

Not mentioned in the advanced gushing over the book is whether scientist character Dilton Doiley will now be portrayed as gay or if he was duped by Molloy since the character has dated Molloy in past issues of the Archie series.

“I’ve been wanting to make this happen for a long time, and it’s really cool to see it finally come to fruition. I never wanted Danni’s trans identity to be gimmicky, or for her to feel like she was only created to be trans. So, I’d like to apologize for sneaking her over the line like this,” the writer of Archie Horror’s series Jinx’s Grim Fairy Tales, Magdalene Visaggio, told Gizmodo.
It's just like Gizmodo to gush over this kind of news, and sugarcoat a bad writer whose actual name is Brian, and who undermined at least a few other publishers with his ideology. It makes no difference whether this is an alternate universe where this retcon occurs; it's a slap in the face to the writers who originally introduced Molloy decades ago, and an embarrassment next to the original stories where Dilton dated Molloy.

And look how Archie's decided to bring a bad ideologue writer out of obscurity for the sake of another woke statement, along with continuing this wretched horror thriller line of theirs. The time's come to boycott Archie as much as Marvel/DC. They effectively destroyed a classic humor comic for the sake of something very unfunny.
